The "Elevate" by MAPS Podcast

What does it actually look like to implement a GenAI solution in a Medical Information department? What are the risks? The benefits? And what should others learn from those who’ve already tested the waters? In today's "Elevate" episode, our speaker panel, lead by Jennifer Riggins and Steve Casey of the MAPS Digital Strategy FAWG, dives into a topic at the cutting edge of medical information: the use of Generative AI for content creation.

You’re not alone if a strong publication didn’t land. More often than not, the problem isn’t the paper - it’s the data behind your target selection. In this episode, scientific communication expert Mike Cashman (Mavens) and data expert Mike Taylor (Altmetric) share how publications teams are using smarter data to guide journal selection and improve impact.Learn how real-world signals like citations, clinical uptake, and policy mentions from Dimensions and Altmetric help teams prioritize journals, plan effectively, and track downstream influence. You’ll also hear how this data gets embedded directly into planning workflows, so teams can make confident decisions right where they work.This is a practical, clear look at how to simplify complex planning, cut through the noise, and make smarter, faster decisions. Whether you’re refining strategy or proving value post-publication, it’s time your tools work as hard as you do. 

This three-part podcast explores how Medical Affairs leaders can navigate and lead through disruption with clarity, structure, and resilience.This episode defines crisis management as a structured, cyclical process: preparedness, response, recovery, and reflection. We discuss how Medical Affairs plays a unique role in translating uncertainty into strategy, maintaining scientific clarity, and protecting external trust through transparent communication.

The Learning Objectives for this podcast are to understand the scope and requirements of the main privacy laws and regulations, covering data types and processing activities including collection, usage, data retention, subjects’ rights and much more.This podcast also considers the risks and practical application of the regulations in the conduct of various Medical Affairs activities.

This podcast looks at the identification and mitigation of risks in four examples of activities at the Medical/Commercial interface with the intent of strengthening your understanding of how to conduct these activities in a compliant manner. The examples include Medical/Commercial field interactions, patient support programs, advice seeking, and use of artificial intelligence.
